County Cavan, Ireland, is the birthplace of Leona Maguire, who became the first Irish woman to win on the LPGA Tour in 2022. She gave up swimming at nine to chase golf, then broke junior and amateur records before turning professional in 2018. Her 2021 Evian Championship final round of 61 remains the lowest-ever final round in any major championship for men or women.
